Humanitarian aid to socio-rehabilitation center for children in Kharkiv

These days our colleagues and partners have arranged another delivery of humanitarian help to support Ukrainian children.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to our partners

Michelle Welsh from Dreamovator who initiated this project

and Dominic Welsh from FactaNV Solutions, who made this all real.

That’s so important for us that our partners continue to collect and deliver aid to Ukraine

The most vulnerable category in this war is children. After psychological trauma’s, received during regular bombings in Kharkiv, some of them continue living in shelters for months.

Therefore this time our partners decided to send their humanitarian help to Center of social-psychological rehabilitation of children in Kharkiv, where #children not only receive psychological help, but also live now.

More than a tonn of essentials: clothes & shoes for upcoming autumn season, sanitary items, long-term food – that’s so much valuable for them.

We highly appreciate efforts of all people and companies, who made this happen

Huge respect for all that these organizations, which keep doing in the name of humanity and kindness:

Solidarity event in Byshiv community, Kyiv region

We continue to make solidarity events to support communities in Ukraine to build a better future.

Together with Network of development of Solidarity & Volunteer tourism we visited Yablunivka village in Kyiv region. Here mushroom & hazelnuts farm became a great support center during full-scale war. They delivered 60 tons of mushrooms in first months of war for free to feed warriors and also distributed mushrooms among locals for free.  

Here we participated all together in:

-> preparing and packing ingredients for dry soups for Armed Forces of Ukraine with careful guidance by BeeTa Страви Переможців.
Ingredients, local fresh greens
: parsley, dill, leek were brought by local people from own gardens. Mushrooms from this farm. All together we packed 3500 portions of dry borsch and dry mushroom soup.
-> weaving camouflage nets for the frontline
-> procurement of spring water for the Nikopol community
> purchase of dry feed for animals for a shelter, where some evacuated animals from the Kherson region were placed
-> making a solidarity mural “Yabluniv Volunteer Ark” from an ordinary water tank
-> create Victory angels from straw during art master-class

As a bonus we learned a lot about mushrooms during farm tour and enjoyed outdoor lunch with locally grown products: grilled mushrooms and vegetables, buckwheat with mushrooms and local hazelnuts (never thought about adding nuts to buckwheat before, but it is really great), borsch and local traditional pies (karavai).

Buying services from local craft producers, art masters, small F&B services, you support local communities a lot. And it is very sustainable. Plus it creates great atmosphere, so everyone can relax, recharge and enjoy the moments of life despite of everything. Despite of loud today night, full of explosions. Despite news, full of death. Such moments gives power to move forward. We know, what we are fighting for. For Life, where local  communities live happily together in prosperity, respecting everyone around.
